Hollywood's best films are celebrated at the 85th Oscars ceremony tomorrow in Los Angeles - but not before the year's biggest cinema turkeys are celebrated tonight. The Razzie Awards, now in their 33rd year, "honour" the worst film, director and actors of the year. More celebrities are expected to turn out for the Oscars, however, with as much attention paid to the clothes worn on the red carpet as to the actual winners.

UN deal to end DR Congo conflict

A UN-mediated peace deal aimed at ending two decades of conflict in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo is signed in Addis Ababa tomorrow - assuming there are no further delays.

But UN chief Ban Ki-moon warned this week that the conflict may reignite.

Italians vote in key election

Italians go to the polls tomorrow in vital elections that could help decide the future of the euro. The likely outcome is a centre-left government led by Democratic Party leader Pier Luigi Bersani, possibly backed by Prime Minister Mario Monti's centrist slate. But polls suggest that former PM Silvio Berlusconi and his allies are gaining ground. Financial markets fear that an unclear outcome to the poll, which ends on Monday, could plunge Italy's economy back into crisis.
